Thank you so much, this is our first time ever changing a tire. We did it - from a single mom

[@kingsrideshop]

Stoked to hear it helped you! Thank you

That was perfect thanks! Haven't changed a tire for years, now changed 2 in half an hour!

[@mcflurybrxce6702]

Thank you you helped me so much I thought it would take hours but with this video it only took about 30 mins for both tires

[@thanismurugathas2929]

Just swapped a 1.95 inch with a 2.4inch wide tyre on a narrow rim. It was a bit tough at the start, but i layed the wheel on my lap to set the bead of the tyre into the rim and after that it worked like a charm

[@uncleron9651]

You saved me 20$ thanks

[@matthewgonzales67]

Yeah I had to hit up my local bike shop to help me out on my double wall bmx rim I never knew that it's a little bit harder to put tire on a double wall I'm so used to single wall but when I finally took it to the bike shop he got it on like nothing even without the tire lever he said sometimes you have to muscle it on but if I had Tire lever will that make it more easier for me so I don't really have to muscle it on.

[@kingsrideshop]

Proper tools and good technique go a long ways to helping get any job done. Little practice helps too.

[@MASTERLUKEYSLOC]

Got me out of a jam thanks a lot!

[@halfmoon5022]

this is a great video. Do those remover tools scratch the rim edge?

[@kingsrideshop]

Those are made by Park Tools for bicycles, they don't scratch the rim when used properly.. all in the technique. Thanks for the kind words!

[@ruipires7954]

U rock!

[@liam-dr3vv]

i currently have a 1.95 tire. Would i have problems changing to 2.25? Thanks

[@NutteloosVermaak]

My tire is so tight around my rim, it's such a pain in the ass to change! I was getting my tire lever between the tire and rim, i pushed on it and the tire lever went flying trough my room!

[@jaquanisashitter7359]

Nutteloos same! I don't know what to do.

[@kingsrideshop]

Yeah some rim and tire combos are a tight fit, most rims curve down toward the center, get as much air out as you can and push both beads of the tire to the middle of the rim, it will help the tire sit more loose on the rim and help get the lever under the bead, I hope it helps. I know some aren't designed the best.

[@kingsrideshop]

I just replied to Nutteloos, give it a quick read, I hope that helps.

This video was great thank you. Any idea what size spanner for a diamondback venom?

[@kingsrideshop]

I'll be honest, I haven't seen a venom in awhile and they've been produced for years so I doubt each year model has the same most likely they are, 15mm, 17mm or 19mm. Thanks for watching and feel free to ask any questions.

[@billyjenkins3015]

Just tried replacing a popped tube in my kids redline. 1st replacement would not hold air, learned about the inner tube protectors. Found it was torn and therefore popped the new tube. Second attempt pinched the tube with iron. Should have just taken it to the damn bike center!

[@tjreynes5595]

Can i ask you what size the tires and wheels?

[@NeroPiXL]

Could I fit a 1.95 on a 1.75,because I'm kinda worried if it will pop or explode?

[@kingsrideshop]

Yeah shouldn't be a problem

[@killtwan2819]

I struggle with getting my back tire on straight

hey man i got a gt preformance 2017 you think its any good?

[@kingsrideshop]

Here at Kings Ride we only sell core bmx brands, brands that only make or main focus is bmx when it comes to bike, so GT isn't a brand we carry, I'm positive tho its a decent bike to start on and you can always get nicer parts for it. Hit our site kingsrideshop.com or if you have any questions on what parts will fit your GT give us a call. Keep riding..

[@dxeditz3548]

kingsrideshop what parts would you recommend me to upgrade?

[@makaeioprieto5357]

My tube exploded and it messed up my tire so I had to replace the tube and the tire and the process of it was actually successful

[@cameroncsaszi5195]

Thank you.

[@carncrboy]

Hey is it fine if I use the opposite side of a spoon to take out the tire please reply

[@giannireyes2733]

When no replies in 11 months

[@eastcoast1069]

do the washers go on the inside or outside

[@kingsrideshop]

Washers go on the outside of the frame.

[@kingsrideshop]

The only problem with putting washers on the inside is the spacing between the forks is equal to the spacing to the outside of the hub lock nuts. But you can flex the fork a little and add washers if it makes you more comfortable and you are still able to get the wheel on the fork.

[@IAMLGND-dr5fb]

I have a question my rims are 20x25 and the tires I ride right now are 20x2.125 I want to get bigger/fatter tires without changing my rims what's the fatter/bigger tires I can get to fit on my rims?l.

[@kingsrideshop]

Not sure what you mean by your rims are 20x25.. but your rims fit any tire with a 406 ISO diameter..meaning you can put a 20x1.75 all the way up t0 a 20x2.5 onto the rim, what you should be concerned with is if your frame and fork have the clearance for the wider tire and if your rim is extremely narrow (which i doubt) the tire's sidewall may flex and fold over easier. Other than that pick up some wider tires and enjoy.

[@mikemyers2002]

do i have to get a bigger inner tube if im getting thicker tires

[@kingsrideshop]

Mike Montes if you get wider tires it’s better to get a bigger tube. It won’t have to stretch as much to fill the tire. You can use the other tubes they just stretch more and that makes them more likely to be punctured

[@mikemyers2002]

kingsrideshop okay thank u for replying so fast!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@L7Clean]

if my stock tires are thin, do I need to buy new rims in order to get fatter tires ? or will 2.5's or 2.4's fit on it regardless

[@kingsrideshop]

You won't need new rims, the wider tires will fit the rims, just make sure your frame and fork have the room to clear the bigger tire.

[@L7Clean]

kingsrideshop good looks bro appreciate it

[@seatbelt9977]

do you have to mach your tire with your rim size?

[@kingsrideshop]

Yes tires are designed to fit the diameter of the rim. If you have questions about what size tire fits your rim you should contact your local bike shop

[@keanulangford5791]

If I don't have a tire lever what else can I use, ( would a screw driver work)

[@slurp1729]

I used a flat screwdriver you could also use a spoon if you want

[@ratherbfishing455]

Ive used spoons, but had to throw them away afterward.

Thanks

tysm because me front tire got a whole s so i have to. Buy a new one. But my broken one. Will go on my wall

[@ogc8417]

Ve got new tyres and i can't get them on like that help

[@kingsrideshop]

Sorry for the late reply, You should be able to install any tire like that however some are a tighter fit than others. Try to use the tire levers to help pry the tire onto the rim..careful not to pinch the tube. Remember only one side of the tire can be installed at a time. If you can't take it to a shop and get some hand on help.

[@Astonish95]

doesnt work for me, plastic just bends then snaps. Im tryibg to get the Valor tires off, which doesnt help but still. Good video though im just frustrated aha

[@whome8154]

A close up of how to get the chain off would have been helpful!

[@bigboi5134]

My tire is all bent out of shape??

[@noelruvalcaba547]

I’m just watching when I already know

[@kaplangunhan9298]

I just use a wrench to take off the side of the tire

[@julializarraga1825]

what About If You dont Have a tier lever.

[@kingsrideshop]

I'd always recommend using the right tool for the job. Tire levers are inexpensive, around $4 a set.

[@Lee-mo]

Putting the tyre back on the rim is so so difficult. My fingernails are coming out to put it back on, so tight and difficult

[@kingsrideshop]

Some Rim and Tire combinations are more difficult than others. I would make sure one side of the tire goes on at a time, the second is to be sure the bead of the tire sits in the deepest area of the rim on the opposing side from where you are trying to install the tire. Some dish soap may help as well.

[@highestox5581]

I can do it easy but some times I pop my inner tube

[@Uilrub]

Is 20x1.95 the same as 20

[@kingsrideshop]

yeah so the first number 20" means the inflated diameter of the tire is about 20" across, this can vary but doesn't matter too much. The second number is the inflated width of the tire, how wide it is. Inner tubes usually fit a range of tires widths, that's why the box usually says 20x1.95-2.125". basically saying it fits a tire from 1.95 inches wide to 2.125 inches wide. Tubes stretch like a ballon to fill space so even if they are not exact on the box, if they are close they should work.

[@Uilrub]

kingsrideshop ok thanks 🙏

[@Lemonator140]

Just like repairing a puncture really

[@birkhaugen5221]

What if the bead is harder to get of least night it took my an hour just to take a tire of and put it on a double wall rim and take it off ohh cool I just figured out my rim is nice nvm 😂😂😂

Pfft tyre levers? just use spoons its way easier and more affordable.
